Anyone else dislike it? (I'm talking about the wedding gown she wears in KoT.) I always hated the collar - something about the way it flips up; it just looks a little Star Trek-y for my taste. Anyone else have any ideas on a better wedding gown for Jasmine? I always liked her "implied wedding" dress from the end of the first movie (that purple thing she wore). I also think they drew her features a little bit more "sharp" than they were in the first two movies (and the series) whereas in the original, she looked a lot softer and more natural. Anyone else get that vibe or is it just me?

I'm not a huge fan of it, but I think that's in-part because I'm so use to seeing her not that covered up Laughing

. I love the veil and the skirt part, but the top/shoulder pad area throws me off, even though I know that's probably not that far from how it would have really looked. If the top was different, I think I'd like it more.

That purple outfit she wore at the end was pants, though, unless you're talking about the dress she wore during the announcement.

I actually didn't have a problem with it. I thought it was lovely. But I think maybe it lacked in the "wow" department. It would be fun to design your own!

Hmm... Maybe I will...

I was thankful to the KoT for giving Aladdin and Jasmine new wardrobes. Very thankful.

I think I just found it a little odd that it was a bit...un-Jasmine-like. But I liked it.

I don't hate it, but I wish they'd given her something a little more authentic. It's too much like a modern Western wedding dress crossed with Jafar's outfit. Laughing

Haha, Calluna, you're right! That weird flippy shoulder thing is very Jafaresque. Maybe that's why it bothers me.
